Synopsis
It's the 30th floor science fair today and John is showing his science volcano. Unfortunately, it fails! John then starts to think that his project failed because he's upside down. So, Todd, Myron, Dana and Maurecia try to help crying John get right-side up, just like the kids who are parallel and are upside down. Meanwhile, Kidswatter is doing an I.Q. test to see if he is smart. Mrs. Jewls tells John, without the help from Todd, Maurecia, Dana, and Myron, that being upside down is not a bad thing.

Production notes
First aired in Canada on the date shown; first US showing on Nickelodeon on August 29, 2008.
Based on best-selling author Louis Sachar's zany books, "Wayside" is a series that captures how kids really see the world in all its preposterous, contradictory glory. Set inside a quirky grammar school accidentally built 30 stories high, "Wayside" follows the peculiar twists and turns of kid logic and introduces a fantastic environment where students are smarter than teachers, cows wander the halls (of course!), and cafeteria meals sit around for hours until they achieve strange powers - none of which enhance the food's flavor...
"Wayside" originally aired as a one-hour special (also titled "Wayside School") on Teletoon on November 19, 2005.
